Okay, so now that that is out of the way, let's keep all the Dino Jr talk here... for sanity's sake. Also this will give us the justification to attack any newcomer for their ignorance of this rather noodley thread. Sounds like fun, right? All I ask is that you inform them of this thread and encourage them to take whatever discussion here. This being said, I refuse to be held accountable if some twat makes a Dinosaur Jr thread anyways (were all looking at you, Buzzo :p). I'm just trying to help everyone out.

Also feel free to come in here and vent about how you don't get how people can like them, just don't be too big of a douche and remember that you can still easily avoid this thread.

Have I got the bases covered?

So I guess I'll start off the convo... Name your favorite J Mascis guitar solo. For me, "Don't." There's no fucking around there. Distortion, screaming, one long-ass psychedelic solo. Yes, I even love how it gets pathetic towards the end.

"Maggot Brain", on Mike Watt's "Ball Hog or Tug Boat". Look at that, I've cheated already and named a track that's not by Dinosaur Jr.

there. And, please, dino haters, get the fuck out of this thread. You've posted a lot of shit about how you dont like them, so dont just ramble on in here. thank you.

Anyone ever heard the Upside Down Cross record that J drummed on?

And Witch is supposed to have a new album out by 2008.

and yeah, keeps this thread open to dino side project discussion as well.

yeah, hell yeah, Lou adds stage presence, talks a little bit, makes jokes and stuff, while Mike just plays in the back. He's an okay bass player though, as i said i love those bass lines for Quest when they played it live in UMass.

I love Mike Watts take on Little Fury Things though, that live version at that swedish festival its pretty awesome, when he just starts soloing.

hmm, while were at little fury things, how come its written 'fury' but J pronounces it as 'furry'? is it just a typo?

edit: no actually, Triceratops' are more Lou. I'm guessing J loves a stegosaurus or a bronto saurus. Murph is T-Rex, ofcourse.

who died and made you GOD???
why have a specific Dino Jr. thread on a SY forum, and rule out all others? other than both bands are mutual friends
but how does SY have any bearing about discussing J's best guitar solos?
couldn't this type of thing easily exist within one of the Dinosaur Jr. websites (i know chats exist there) if you find it so important to have a thread like this doesn't that make more logical sense?

btw, i ain't a newbie... so blast away bitches.
I'm certainly not against this "idea" but rather how its being "projected"...
i hate people who think they need to direct themselves to others like the above.

why have a specific nnck thread on a sy forum? its non-sonic sounds, so yeah as long as its music, who the fuck cares. its like asking why have a band thread in the non sonic sounds which is pretty annoying. so yeah...

Because everyone here that aren't Dinosaur Jr fans are shitting bricks everytime a new one comes up. Not everyone is a fan. Like I said, I'm trying to help.

It doesn't, this is Non-Sonic Sounds. Are you sure you don't have some mental instability of some kind?

Couldn't that be said of every band that's discussed here other than Sonic Youth? Seems like it would defeat the purpose of this entire Non-Sonic Sounds subforum.

The air of superiority was more or less a joke. Thanks for catching that.
